A piece of stigma and everything is overturned.
With the news of his death in prison, the century-old family fell apart.
The second son of the Sheng family, Sheng Jinghuai, escaped from his life and lived among the lower classes of refugees. He changed his name to Sheng Yan and took the opportunity to return to Beijing. He is a lonely man, just waiting for the opportunity to reverse the case of his father who died unjustly, and let all those who framed the Sheng family pay with their blood.
At that time, there were undercurrents surging in the imperial city. Prime Minister Gao Shuo controlled the power, and Pei Zhiyan, the Minister of Household Affairs, was complicit in his conspiracy.
The seventh prince Xiao Yuheng is trapped in the palace. On the surface, he has no interest in party fighting, but in fact, he has the ambition to conquer the world and is in urgent need of a sharp blade that is not afraid of blood. During the testing step by step, Xiao Yuheng guessed that Sheng Yan was Sheng Jinghuai, and Sheng Jinghuai, who was full of blood and hatred, could just use his injustice to cut through the dirty night and realize his ambitions. Sheng Jinghuai knew that he had no one to rely on, so he was willing to use this to wash away his family's grievances.
The calculations are layer upon layer, and the bonds are quietly formed.
This encounter started out of interest, but there was no God-given warmth. It was just a chess game in troubled times, where two ambitious people had to be bound to each other until death.
Purpose: Growth is never achieved overnight, and life is not always smooth sailing. From temptation to heart-to-heart talk, the two work together to bring order to the chaos and move forward together.
